Innovation in mind will continue
As Mats Lindoff entered the stage at 4 PM Sep 17, everyone in the Quadrangle knew that Innovation in Mind was about to end. In the tent that is. For there are a lot of minds in which innovation will live on. It is not a shortage of ideas and creativity that will hamper innovation in our flat world of global competition. As Curtis Carlson pointed out, the problem is that most companies do not have a clear idea of how to systematically nurture and support work on innovation. A deficiency that may explain why companies fail to adapt and as a result go out of business. Think of the possibilities if companies and established organizations better could pick up on and support the innovative ideas that users, which not uncommonly, also are employees, come up with.

I completely agree. But have a look at this blog. I have the opportunity to comment – but not to post. In which forum will the findings of Innovation in Mind be discussed – if in any? See me as the employee who is not able to contribute. Also, I cannot access the knowledge shared at InM. Sharing is limited to the participants. This is surprising at an event which is heavily funded by the public sector and has a content in a format that is comprehendable and relevant to the masses.
